Feedback And Coaching: Performance Management In The Workplace

Do you believe that employee engagement is related to feedback and coaching? If not, you may be missing a key to performance management in the workplace.

Feedback is the breakfast of champions – yet many supervisors are starving their employees! There’s no question that feedback has greater impact on employee performance than anything else a corporation can do, and it doesn’t cost a dime. Yet supervisors get caught up in daily administrative tasks and often fail to provide feedback and coaching.

Every employee walks around wondering, “How am I doing?” …and longs to hear either “You’re doing a great job” or “You’re off track here, but here’s how to get back on.” And they want to hear it from someone they believe is genuinely interested in helping them succeed. Employee surveys indicate that supervisors give far more criticism than praise and appreciation. Still fewer give constructive feedback and coaching tips.

Development of an environment where ongoing feedback and coaching is a normal part of everyday interactions, not a single event
